I was working at The Ohio State University when Evan Turner played there. Those teams around 2006-2007 were incredible to watch and beautifully constructed. They had Greg Oden, Mike Conley, Evan Turner, and others who played in the NBA as well. They got to the finals but can never win the championship. And Turner was taken high in the NBA draft but never materialized as a superstar. He was a great role player with a 10+ career in the NBA. His best year was playing for the Celtics, which he flipped into a nice contract for the Trailblazers, but never was the superstar I hoped you would be. Still, an affordable , rookie logoman auto fits perfectly in my collection.

One of about three Vince cards I own as part of my collection. With the new Panini patch and logoman dump that we’ve all been expecting. I was able to pick up this mini logoman and Adidas patch up for a lot less money. Still it’s a beautiful card and you in two meaningful patches that are game worn and not player worn or non-associated!

Having gone to IU, ‘Dipo was one of my favorite players to watch. An NBA All-Star, his career was cut short by a major quadriceps injury. He’s still fighting, and trying to make a comeback this year. In the preseason he’s had some really good games. I hope he has the chance to make an NBA roster and still show the league that he can play at that level. he might have lost some of the explosiveness that was a large part of his game early in his career, but he still has great handles, can shoot, and take it to the room. This is one of two logoman autos I have of him. Would love to pick up a few more!

Yes, it’s an unlicensed Leaf product. It’s a good thing I don’t care! More often, I’m drawn to rare, unique, game used pieces of Hall of Fame players I like. And these can be had at a fraction of the cost of some of the licensed pieces, but still look fantastic in hand. If anyone has any similar cards, logomen, bat barrel nameplates, etc for sale/trade, shoot me a message!

Sure, this is not a true logoman card. However, it does capture a small piece of the top part of a logoman. Flair was known to insert these prime patches randomly in their cards as they were produced long before these pieces carried such a hefty premium. The true Paul Pierce logoman is likely outside of my price range, so as a Celtics fan, I’m happy to have this “mini logo man“ in my collection.
